2008 was a good year for MSDynamicsWorld.com. Following the launch of the site last January, we were lucky enough to collaborate with a tremendously talented group of Dynamics experts who have written about a wide range of important topics. Looking back over the year, here are the ten stories (in no particular order) we judged to be the most important--based on their provocativeness and usefulness, along with reader interest and traffic:
  1. Why You Need a Champion for a Successful Microsoft Dynamics GP Implementation, and Why That Person Isn't Who You Think It Is
    Dynamics GP expert Mark Polino has been involved in a lot of GP implementations, and he knows one of they keys to success is to have a champion - a user who embraces the system and becomes the go-to person internally for Dynamics GP.  In this piece, Mark dives into great real-life scenarios and project details that are often overlooked and under-appreciated until it is too late.  Learn from a seasoned GP professional in this insightful column.

  2. What Will Be the Most Important Performance Enhancement in Dynamics AX 2009? Try Scaling of the AOS
    Brandon George discusses the work that went into performance improvements to the Dynamics AX 2009 AOS to optimize hardware usage including 64 bit mode, greater RAM usage, and optimized use of quad core processors.
